To qualify as a “disabled adult child”, the Social Security Administration has fairly clear rules. You must be over the age of 18, you must be unmarried, your condition must meet the applicable disability criteria before you turned 22, and at least one of your parents must have worked enough under SSA and also be either retired, deceased or receive Social Security disability.
As a disabled adult child, you probably haven’t paid enough into the disability system to qualify for benefits on your own. Because of this, the SSA will use a parent’s history of work under SSA as your qualification for disability benefits.
Qualifying as a disabled adult child can be a confusing and complicated process; get help from a disability attorney before you apply. Or, if you were denied, call a disability attorney right away.
